Brian of Tecmo:
We're creating a Beach Volleyball game that we invisioned a long time ago. Yes, it will have beautiful women and some objectionable material. We're creating the game the way we want it to be, we are not striving for a Teen or Mature rating. Whatever ESRB gives us, is what we have to live with. We will not have any Sexual Intercourse or Penetration in the game, that is the only thing that can make it a Adults Only game. Having nudity will not neccessarily mean will receive a Adults Only rating. Rated R movies is like having a Mature rating in a way.

The game will not suffer in gameplay, just imagine the fluidness of DOA3 but playing VolleyBall. Plus, it's not only a VolleyBall game?

There is also a game coming called Dave Mirra XXX. It features full on swearing, and footage of strippers from the club Scores! The real shocker is that it is coming to all three systems in the fall! I wonder if Nintendo will allow this game to be on their system? DMXXX will be the first console game to show nudity of real women. Ground breaking or tasteless attempt at sales?

I heard about Dave Mirra XXX. In that game you'll be able to use the points you win to buy movies from the Stripper clubs. They said they're not sure yet if they're going to have the movies blurred or fully uncensored.

I dont know about nudity being confirmed. It sounds alot like plugging for the game if you ask me. Nudity to them will mean semi see through outfits or something. I doubt you will see any full blown nudity in this.
Ofcourse I hope I'm wrong and there ends up being naughty stuff. Hitomi...rrrrraow..

DoA3 sold over a millions copies. If this is true, then this will probably sell a whole lot more. And I doubt that this game will get a Ao rating.

But I would think that this is bad for DoA gamers. After this game comes out. VF and Tekken players would probably make fun of the DoA players for getting this game. Even though this isn't a fighting game. The series started out as one.

Like Alucard said, this might be a bluff. And they're just trying to hype up the game.

Yeah, it might just be hype or a rumor.

Bah, if it does sell a whole lot more, we'll know why! >_<

They should take volleyball out of the title, as this obviously isn't the focus, they should just name it "DOA: Xtreme Beach Girls"

06-25-2002, 02:38 PM

Volleyball is still the main concept. Tecmo said that they had been planning a volleyball game for a while now. And it makes sense if they do it on the DoA3 engine. And Tecmo had made some sports games before.

Do you think that they will continue with the DoA spinoffs? Or go back to fighting games after this?

Kid0_oIcarus

You don't really need a nudity code, Tecmo can always throw in skin-color bathing suits then it's pretty much like nudity.

My complain is that Tecmo doesn't care about female gamers! How about throwing in a bunch of guys in the game in boxers and bikini?

Penance

06-25-2002, 04:08 PM

I heard that in the rumor section of OXM, it said that there might be a topless mode for this game. So, it'll be something like; get 10million points in survial mode and you unlock the topless mode.

Alucard

I'm sure they'll put some of the guys in boxers.I doubt it's just female characters only. Cause then the hcaracter count would be like 6. Kinda trashy for a game of today. You'll probably get ...christ whats his name...and he's my favourite character in the game too.. The cool guy. You know him. He'll be in boxers just for you pika.

06-27-2002, 06:09 PM

Thanks but no thanks I am not interested to see Gen Fu, Zac or Bass in boxers or bikinis.

Tecmo has not mentioned anything about male characters in the game. The only guy in the game is ZAC, who apparently has won the DOA3 tournament and became a millionnaire aftering winning big bucks from Las Vegas. So he bought the entire island and invites all the girls over for beach volleyball tournament....

There is an original character called LIZA though.

I thought there was going to be two new characters.

It also sounded like the topless mode was a go, just not a rumor.
Tecmo talked with the ESRB about what rating the game would get if they went topless. The ESRB said it would get a Mature rating. It sounds like the ESRB is going to start following the same standards used in movies to rate games. A Mature rating would be like a rated R movie. All you guys under 18 will just have to trick your mom into buying the game for you.;)

It's the sex.. it sells..

It's silly, campy, and sad- but it sells..

The only way, they might be able to reedem the game is by including male characters... otherwise this game will purely be judged by its fake boobs physics...

The game seems okay enough, couldn't they tout the gameplay instead of the sex?

I enjoy "mature" games, but it seems to me this isn't very mature at all...

Eh. I bet it'll still sell..

Naked DOA Girls = Yummy

On a serious note, maybe there useing this as a research tool to get there engine up to spec for DOA4, much in same way Reflections did with Stuntman for Driver 3, developing these engines are expense and time consuming so they release the Volleyball game with partial nudity or full and geeky fan boys make it sell over a million copy's Tecmo makes a buttload of money and the teams hard to work on DOA4 with an enchanced engine.

and the comment about Tecmo selling it's proverbial soul to MS, It's there business and frankly I'm behind there choice, Tecmo strives for the best graphics in there games as evidenced my there support for the Sega Dreamcast which beat the shit out of PS1 & N64 in graphics, then the PS2 launch's and there's Tecmo once again making games for the highest powered system, then the gamecube launchs no titles for them being DOA's sexual nature, then though the cube is better looking then PS2, and finally the Xbox which is the graphics king there you go there was no selling of souls, and there's even rumours of a DOA game making it to PS2 which is probaly a DOA3 rehash or Xtreme Beach Volleyball :)

Tecmo once again making games for the highest powered system

Tecmo isn't just making games Xbox. They're making Rygar for PS2. The DoA game game probably is DOA3: Hardcore or something. They'll probably throw in some new stuff like they did in DOA2: HC. And theres also a rumor about Ninja Gaiden only having a 6 month exclusive rights with Xbox. So that might get ported also. But this rumor is form PSM.

Tecmo knows that Microsoft will always help them out when they're in need of money. Thats why theres such a big surport for it.

That would probably mean an AO rating. I'm sure Tecmo wants to keep it at an M rating. If there is no topless option in the game, it will probably get a TEEN rating.

like Brian (tecmo tester, moderator) said, only explicit sexual depiction or penetration will get u an AO rating

not saying Tecmo will go for full nudity, just explaining the difference between AO and M :)

Yeah Beaver, I'm sure that Tecmo will release the first One-handed controller, just for this game. ;)

I doubt this game will get an AO rating. The bar for an AO rating is kinda high.

As for the DOA for GBA, probably not. You'd probably see Halo on GBA before DOA. Since THQ is involved now and stuff.

Alucard

08-05-2002, 06:28 AM

Ok I'm a little confused. Why is this thread still active? Game comes out in about a couple months. It's on a console. There wont be any nudity. This isn't the PC. It's a game aimed at teenagers. The PS2 version of DoA2 had a way to hack the game with a premade save game that made Kasumi naked. The new DoA2 game that came out after that didn't have that option because Tecmo stamped it out. What makes you think they will have some in this game when they removed it from the other?

If theres nudity it'll be done in teasing fashion. ie, part of a CG ending or something. Akin to Kasumi being in that water pod thing in the inrto. Thinking you will have girls jumping around topless while playing the game is silly. Not going to happen. I think what this threads turned into lately isn't relly classy material for the forums.

Well if you can design you own swimsuit- that's it then.. some clown will design a "no swimsuit" swimsuit! I can think of worse things if you can design your own patterns.

Really though, this game sounds like it'll have a ton of options and things to do. Hope it sells.... and the gets ported. Muwahahahahaha!

Havoc2049

08-05-2002, 12:46 PM

This thread is still alive because we all like a good game of Volleyball, damit!;)

The whole nudity thing was started by Tecmo themselves, it is not just a rumor. Some Tecmo USA guy said in an interview that he contacted the ESRB to see what rating they would get if there was nudity in DOAEVB. The leader of Team Ninja also said in an interview that they are exploring the possibility of nudity in the game. In the September issue of the Official Xbox Mag(if you want to believe them), they make it sound like there will be nudity. Quote from OXM, "Get enough cash winnings by the latter stages of the game and you may even be able to use the character custumization options to make your player topless!"
Tecmo has already included nudity in the ending movie for Christie in DOA3, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch for them to have a topless mode in DOAEVB.

The whole nudity thing could also be part of the bikini customization option, depending how detailed the option is. I guess you could design a skin colored bikini and design nipples and a little black triangle in the right areas.

clearing things up on (every version) DOA2 kasumi hack

its there because in the intro there is already the naked kasumi model (some version had to unlock the naked intro)

the hack just change the normal clothed model with the naked model

but,

DOA2 HC JP edition (latest DOA2 version, have the most extras) have a hack to enable naked model on *all* female characters

now how can this happen?

apparently, Tecmo (or a naughty employee) sneak in the naked models for all female characters on the disc

a JP hacking mag (Westside) found that out, and put the hack in their magazine disc

Tecmo sued the magazine for 'perverting their game', heh (oh the irony)

and nudity in (console) games is nothing new, there are a number of them on each platforms, esp. Sega consoles

about nudity in DOAXBV, i still think its not going to happen, but with Itagaki doing the dev, u never know ;)

but this new CERO (JP software rating board), might be a bit of a problem though

Oh, I know about the whole past thing and the skins. But I'm pretty sure it only worked with Kasumi and not the other characters. Never saw anything about any other character but Kasumi. And the saturn was a little different. Those games were for the japanese people. They love those sorts of things ;) But I dont see Microsoft agreeing to turn their console into a semi porn station. Not an American console. Especially not in todays time.

I don't know really, if it means more sales for the Xbox given it's mature audience or older demographics I wouldn't doubt they'd use it as a gimmick. It seems to have enough going for it already, though. Then of course, there's the old adage that something something is more attactive when it's in a mysterious something clothing or..something (Yeah, I don't remember it either, save to say, sometimes it's sexier to leave some articles of clothing on a woman.. I'd guess it holds true even if the woman isn't real? Eh.)

Id be surprised if it REALLY is a good volelyball game, or any better than Beach Spikers. DOAXV started out as a "game" that was meant to showcase the DOA girls in swimsiuts and costumes and stuff, much in the same way it was done ages ago with the Virtual Idols for Primal Image. However, the dev team decidsed to make it into a Volleyball game as well, but at the core lies the "Lets show some flesh" concept they had in mind.

Which is fine by me. But Ill believe its a great volleyball game when I actually play it, for now Ill just beliefve its a softcore Playboy Project. :p

that said, the new CERO looks to curtail this, with Tecmo (DOAXBV-flesh fest) and Capcom(Resident Evil 0-violence) on thier target list

Well, nudity isnt all that COMMON in western game consoles. In japan, perhaps, but mostly Adult games appeared on the Sega Saturn. Some did appear on the PSX, but they were heavily toned down version without any of the "nasty scenes" of the Saturn or PC Versions. Some examples: To Heart, Doukyusei.

Since none of these games EVER made it to Europe or the US, nudity is a very rare thing in a console in the West. In fact, the only game I can gurrently think of that featured some nudity was Night Trap on the Sega Cd. Or Night Crap as I liked to call it. :D

DOA Volleyball to be bundled with "Big ass bottle of lotion."

Sources revealed today that Tecmo plans to bundle DOA XBV with a big ass 44 oz bottle of lotion, not a 12 oz bottle as was originally expected.

"After extensive 'play-testing' we decided that 12 oz just wasn't enough lotion. We could barely get through the Championship Circuit once without finishing the bottle."

When asked if Tecmo had any other plans for the bundle, a Tecmo representative said "we're pondering adding some napkins as well. It all depends on how much time we have."

Now she needs the aid of the other girls to feed her juicy fruit that could possibly drip onto her chin, thus requiring the other girls to clean it off. She'll also need the girls to dress her into some new one-piece bikini, give her sponge baths and rub her down since she obviously can't hold soap or a sponge, and undress her into her lingerie at night, so she can sleep.

Come on guys, it's not always about sex.

This is most likely the killer app for Xbox in Japan. I appreciate the boldness of Tecmo's approach and is it really any different than extreme graphic violence which at first was fought (remember the clean version of Mortal Kombat on SNES) but now embraced by the public? I think sexuality in gaming is the next step in pushing the envelope.

I'm going to get the game. The DOA series has become my fighting game of choice lately. DOAX will give me a chance to get to know the characters better. Team Ninja is also on a roll right now, I expect the game to have great graphics and gameplay. I expect the game to be fun to play and good for a laugh. I also like how Team Ninja is including so many extras in the game. The chicks are hot and I don't think I would get the game if it was a bunch of guys.

Back in the old days, Namco produced a game called Splatterhouse. The gimmick was the extreme violence, but it was backed up by some good gameplay. Now in 02, GTA3 used extreme violence and sexual situations (the hookers) but also backed it up with gameplay. Given Tecmo's track record, this game has a very good chance of not only having the sexuality being upfront but being a good game as well.

Dude, it already is! Pay-per-view! :D

But seriously, there will be no nudity at all? Or will it just not come shipped with nudity? :D Perhaps you can design see through swimwear?

So those pics were just FMV? Well.. that's a little dissapointing.. I though the "girls" did that on their own and you could just photograph them :D

HEY that's what we need! A game like that Pokemon phot-taking game only have it take place in an all-girls school! Think about it they could play all sors of sports- not just volleyball!! Wait.. hasn't a movie about this already been done? :rolleyes: Oh, yeah, and the game is prolly out in Japan by now.. :D

the design your own swimsuit feature was canned, Itagaki said that feature removes the urgency to unlock extra costumes

so no, u can't design a skin colored swimsuit ;)

Aw.. that was a really neat concept too... but yeah, I see how it could clash... unless, the new swimsuits you could unlock would be different than the standard one piece, etc. I mean, you would unlock different styles, which then you could color and pattern (used as a verb! w00t!) any way you want! That would work! ;)

The name of the game is Dead Or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball and, in light of the name alone, one would think that the game would stick to environments on the beach. According to Japanese site CCB, (Thanks Luna), the definition of beach has been extended as Dead Or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball will also feature matches in the jungle. Furthermore, it was reported that the game will give players control over size of the bikinis. In short, players will be able to dictate just how much skin is shown. Dead Or Alive Xtreme Volleyball ships in November for Xbox.

w00t! I'm gonna dress mine up in skimpy swimsuit stuff so she looks like a ho'! If the game lets me I'll go one step further and she'll look like Christina Aguilera...

Save some milk for the orphanage!!

As a matter of fact... it IS! Sorta.

Primal Image was one of the first games to be released on the PS2. It features three virtual models or "idols" who do all sorts of stuff, from sunbating to swimming to modelling in the clothes you choose. You get to take pictures of them as they strut their nubile, young, virginal bodies accross your virtual polygonal playground.

From what I heard, DOAX was meant to be something similar, but as an added "Bonus" they decided to make it a Volleyball game as well, since that would probably pull more punters in.

Cause you know.

Voluptuous girls wearing 25 grammes of bikini, feeding each other fruit and prancing around on the beach, rubbing suntan lotion on each other, aint enough to sell a game nowadays.

Ahem.

I think we will all see how much sex sells when the title is released.. this game has got more sex appeal than DOA3 did...

I wonder what the reviews for this thing will be like? 9,5,10? Hehe.. get it?

Bill's right but Bill if there's a solid volleyball game machanic in the game then people will buy it for both reasons, anyways there just making this damn game so they can get engine revisions going, did ya here Tecmo confirmed DOA 4 game companys nowadays they release games like Onimusha and lets say DMA with GTA 3 they release these games as a diversion while they build features on there engines Tecmos been doing it since DOA 2 for Dreamcast, then there was DOA 2 HARdCORE for PS2 which was the DC game with better textures and higher polygon counts and then DOA 3. Tecmo has been down with the best hardware at the time since PSX with the orginal they move on when they can make there game look better on another system. even though Rygar looks great for PS2.

Actually the Original started out on the Saturn. And the zooming feature was way cooler on it. I mean.. FWOAH!
